00:00All right, so is it time now for the Cowboys to start fooling everybody again?
00:04This is usually like their good spot.
00:07As soon as they, you know, 15-point favorites, then they'll win,
00:11and then they play a game they're not supposed to win,
00:13and then maybe this is the game that they end up winning
00:15and then get everybody back on board,
00:17and then, of course, they'll play Washington at home.
00:19They'll be two touchdown favorites and lose outright,
00:21but that's usually what they do.
00:22This week they're at Green Bay.
00:24The Packers have started to turn their season around without a doubt.
00:28They seem like they've got things going in the right direction.
00:31The combination of those two wide receivers, it's like finally back.
00:35Packers have not had wide receivers that have been formidable really since Devontae Adams,
00:40and it looks like Golden and Watson are both formidable there.
00:42They really don't run the ball that well, but they can throw it,
00:44and, of course, you would expect that in Green Bay tonight.
00:49Here we go, Joe.
00:50This is the time that everybody's off Dallas now, and everybody's on Green Bay,
00:53but maybe it is Dallas' time.
00:56But I just can't trust Dallas at all.
00:59But I definitely feel better about them as a dog than a favorite.
01:03I can't ever take them as a favorite, as you know.
01:06This is called the close-your-eye special, Craig.
01:08You're exactly right.
01:09When Dallas should win games and situations at home on short weeks, rookie quarterbacks,
01:15yeah, yeah, Dallas should handle their business, but they don't.
01:18In a game where you have to go on the road to Green Bay,
01:21a team that has played them tough,
01:23handed them a very embarrassing loss in the playoffs just a few years ago, too.
01:26Let's not forget that.
01:27Yeah, this is probably where you should be in on Dallas.
01:30There's no rhyme or reason to it.
01:31To try to put some sort of stability on this chaos that is the Dallas Cowboys is absurd.
01:37But, yeah, plus one and a half on the Cowboys seems like the side you should be on this game.
01:41I'm still not sold on the Packers' defense.
01:43It was a weird game last week.
01:45Some amazing plays by Love and Christian Watson and Golden in that game
01:50where they just opened things up against that Bears secondary that just could not stop anybody.
01:55The Cowboys can't really stop anybody either.
01:57Does it matter?
01:58No.
01:59They'll probably find a way anyway because, of course,
02:01whenever you write off the Cowboys in games that they probably shouldn't win,
02:05that's when they find ways to win.
02:07So I'm just going to go with you, Craig, and I wish I had more data to support this
02:11except that all the data that we watch every single year with the Cowboys
02:14not handling their business when they should
02:16and surprising us when they have no business winning football games.
02:19So there you have it, everybody.
02:20Close your eyes.
02:20Special Dallas Cowboys this week.
02:22I mean, I don't even love Dallas.
02:24I just know that I'm more up to take them as a dog than as a favorite.
02:29As a favorite, it's a zero.
02:31It's a zero percent because they're not – it's not that Dallas won't cover as a favorite.
02:35It's just they cover less than 50 percent of the time.
02:38So that's just an immediate no.
02:39As a dog, yeah, I mean, there's a little bit more of a chance at least
02:43that I could see that coming through.
02:45And, you know, for Green Bay, they're playing better,
02:47but the odds makers are sort of telling us it's a little bit fraudulent
02:49or else Green Bay would be three or Green Bay would be four or Green Bay would be two and
02:53a half.
02:53But as you can see here, the line certainly is close.
